Ahem...

I've ignored 75dB calibration point for years and kept all the DSPs as high as possible by calibrating to the level of the lowest measured speaker at 0dB adjustment. I raised the -3dB processor gain issue many years ago, advocating direct DSP connection for CD transports to circumvent the veil induced by going via the processor. Many have heard this difference and commented on it, but chose to live with it as a tradeoff for Trifield and MRC.
